HuffPost
Emma Heming Willis says the media needs to "stop scaring people" about neurocognitive diseases.
Bruce Willis’ wife, Emma Heming Willis, says the “stupid headlines” about her husband’s life following his Aphasia diagnosis are “far from the truth.”
In a clip posted to Instagram on Sunday, Heming Willis said she was “triggered” after an unnamed outlet reported that the “Die Hard” star, 68, has “no more joy” after his Aphasia progressed into frontotemporal dementia (FTD).
“I just got clickbaited. I’m just scrolling, minding my own business, and just saw a headline that had to do with my own family,” she began her video message on Instagram. “The headline basically says there is no more joy in my husband. Now, I can just tell you, that is far from the truth.”
She continued, “Stop scaring people to think that once they get a diagnosis of some kind of neurocognitive disease that ‘That’s it. It’s over. Let’s pack it up. Nothing else to see here, we’re done.’ No. It is the complete opposite of that, okay?”
Heming Willis said despite experiencing “grief and sadness,” her family’s “new chapter” is filled with love, connection, joy and happiness.
